wireless network
From what I can tell, the definition saying that wireless networks always have an access point is wrong, as mesh networks that work wirelessly are called a wireless network too. As such, I think this is SoP as wireless + network. -- Liliana • 09:46, 7 December 2012 (UTC)


 * It's a computer term that should be kept. Also defined at Your Dictionary]. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 10:30, 8 December 2012 (UTC)


 * It's also used to refer specifically to wifi. And sometimes even more specifically to wifi with internet access. But this might just be metonymy. --WikiTiki89 10:36, 8 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Just wireless may also refer to both wireless network or wireless connectivity. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 10:54, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I'll bet the most common usage is as a synonym for wifi/WiFi, as a transitional term between hearing or reading wifi/WiFi and understanding wifi/WiFi. And the next most common will be a more SoP usage in discussions about the technology generally or about the next generation of WiFi. DCDuring TALK 14:55, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
